You have included the trailing newline in your hash calculation;
the example in the article did not do this:

echo The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog | openssl dgst -whirlpool
(stdin)= 72687676756b91ad986f2e56df761b354b748bc20098354b017b924e82cc67ae059da85f009d1a17c0f12ec0e644c0c3a193f3fc0fee22f053edbfcd95cbf873

echo -n The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog | openssl dgst -whirlpool
(stdin)= b97de512e91e3828b40d2b0fdce9ceb3c4a71f9bea8d88e75c4fa854df36725fd2b52eb6544edcacd6f8beddfea403cb55ae31f03ad62a5ef54e42ee82c3fb35
